Overview
How each tool is described
IDeaS G3 RMS
What is IDeaS G3 RMS?
IDeaS G3 RMS is a hotel revenue management system that uses advanced SAS analytics and machine learning to forecast unconstrained demand and automate pricing, rate availability, restrictions, and overbooking decisions.
- Granular revenue optimization: G3 RMS produces pricing and inventory-control decisions at room-type and rate-code level rather than relying only on a single property-wide BAR. Independent Products can optimize multiple base products—such as daily, weekly, or monthly rates—according to their individual demand patterns, while linked products can retain relationships with those optimized rates.
- Forecasting and exception management: the system forecasts unconstrained demand, then determines the business mix, pricing, availability, and controls appropriate to expected demand. Automation handles routine tactical decisions while Information Manager, Investigator, and exception-based workflows direct revenue managers toward unusual conditions, important dates, or decisions requiring intervention.
- Groups and profitability: G3 RMS includes Group Pricing for evaluating group opportunities using factors such as displacement, forecast occupancy, capacity, and expected conversion. Its redesigned 2026 workflow adds expanded evaluation results and approval workflows. Channel Forecasting can analyze future channel demand and acquisition costs, while Profit Optimization can incorporate ancillary revenue, margins, and acquisition or servicing costs into revenue decisions.
- Integration and portfolio operations: G3 RMS is a cloud-based system with two-way integrations that exchange reservation data and distribute optimized pricing and inventory controls to hotel systems. Current examples include Oracle OPERA Cloud through OHIP and DerbySoft connectivity. Multi-property organizations can also add Portfolio Navigator to identify revenue opportunities, prioritize actions, and deploy strategy or configuration changes across multiple hotels from one dashboard.
IDeaS G3 RMS is most relevant to hotels, resorts, and multi-property revenue teams that need highly granular automated pricing and inventory decisions while allowing revenue managers to concentrate on exceptions, group opportunities, profitability, and portfolio-level strategy.

What is Request?
Request is a procurement and spend management platform that helps businesses manage purchasing workflows, approvals, budgets, and company spending through a centralized system. It allows employees to submit purchase requests, enables finance teams to control approval processes, and provides tools for managing expenses, payments, and spending policies.
- Procurement workflows: Request helps organizations replace manual purchasing processes with structured approval flows, purchase requests, policy controls, and automated routing rules for business spending.
- Spend management: finance teams can monitor purchasing activity, set spending controls, manage budgets, and improve visibility into how company funds are being used across teams and departments.
- Payment and purchasing controls: the platform connects approved purchasing decisions with payment workflows, helping organizations maintain oversight from request submission through transaction completion.
- Business operations fit: Request is designed for companies that need more control over employee purchases and approval processes, particularly organizations looking to standardize procurement without relying on disconnected email-based workflows.
Request is most suitable for businesses that want to bring purchasing requests, approvals, and spend visibility into one workflow while maintaining financial control over employee-driven spending.
